Does anyone else have this issue or am I just a bit nuts. Here goes....
I currently have 2 main bats, a Newbery uzi sps short blade Stickersd as Ayrtek elite and a brand new custom rob pack BlueRoom. Both are unbelievably good and I get a huge amount of pleasure from using both in the nets. But still.. For reasons unknown I keep thinking about buying another bat, or worse, swapping one just to get a different bat in the kit bag. Am I just being a plonker and has the novelty worn off or do other people have this problem?? Both bats are far superior to anything I've ever used before so why am I getting these ridiculous urges?? Aaarrggghhh!!!

We all have infinite wants, and companies target this mindset through proclaminig USPs and reduced prices at us, by I'm drifiting onto Economics.

I'm sure we all do to some extent, it's just knowing whether to say "No, I'm fine" or say "Why the hell not?" like several members on this forum will happily admit.

It's awful. I know the chances of me getting another bat equal to these will be slim but I keep finding myself taking pictures ready to offer then deleting the topic or checking the for sale section to see what beauties crop up

why do women need more than 4 pairs of black shoes

same theory mate they are all essentially black but they will have different styles to each making them "different"

thats the way i justify it anyway!

ProWannabe88 · « **Reply #5 on:** January 04, 2011, 07:08:33 PM »

Tom that's a brilliant explanation. I just need another pair of going out shoes now I've worn the others. Haha

haha when uv got a load of kit in every room mate u have to become more inventive with the excuses

peplow · « **Reply #7 on:** January 04, 2011, 07:11:56 PM »

haha yeah must be a tough one for you.

I keep deciding to settle on some, then the "novelty" wears off and i change my mind.... annoying!

ProWannabe88 · « **Reply #8 on:** January 04, 2011, 07:13:47 PM »

Its an annoyance more than anything else. I think I'll be ok for now as there isn't anything on here to tear me away from either I have. Yeah suppose there's good reasoning behind that Tom, Then again when your just bombarded with the stuff does it not have a reverse aspect and you get sick to the back teeth of seeing it all

I feel your pain too Liam. I have 4 real match bats. Redback and SAF will be used, H4L is going to a mate for some TLC for the season, and a Lekka that I have is on its way out, I hope.., then a Net Bat (hopefully!) and a middling bat!

- My bank balance is LOW: damn CBF in general! Though I can't complain about the quality of the bats

given up buying bats now as have a good excuse to be saving money lol makes me think twice at least

way i look at it now is that the �200ish will be sat collecting dust as i have 4 other bats that can be used before it lol money can be spent of other things then.....i.e new car and wedding fund lol

I'm sure this is a daily occurence for most forum members.....sure is for me! As long as you justify it as well as Tom has then it all seems perfectly logical and in no way a weird obsession........

Wedding fund........wave goodbye to those bats then!!!!

johan95 · « **Reply #12 on:** January 04, 2011, 07:19:51 PM »

Good plan Tom. I think that's my bats covered for the next couple of seasons! Should be buying new ones in 2013!!, though that is if all goes well!

ProWannabe88 · « **Reply #13 on:** January 04, 2011, 07:23:48 PM »

Thats all good fellas. Or.... I could get another bat

Ayrtek Cricket · « **Reply #14 on:** January 04, 2011, 07:24:38 PM »
